  1. The thing about geometry is that it has postulates. Symbols and their relationships imply rules and formulas. So, when you combine magical symbols with geometry, it implies a relationship, rules, and postulates. It really frustrates me when people circumscribe magical ciphers and words within geometric figures where there are no underlying axioms, postulates, or theorems.

    Combining magical symbols with geometry without any type of postulate that you can prove makes the entire thing pointless. What is the relationship between that magical symbol and that angle? That is a 45-degree angle. What relationship does that angle have with that magical symbol that denotes a magical entity? I can’t look at most magicians’ magical seals without cringing. They never provide formulas or explain why they used those formulas. The lack of structure undermines the potential significance or effectiveness of the magical practice if the magical system is predicated on structure.

    It irks me even more when the seal has arbitrary or random planetary or zodiac symbols that have nothing to do with the geometry and angles of what those symbols denote. If you are going to use geometry in your magic, then it should have logical rules and principles and a connection to the geometry. The complex magical seals are pretty, but they mean absolutely nothing. I would rather have their fictional narrative, i.e., a mythology.

    Mathematics is a symbolic language. While it is a precise language, it is a language nonetheless, so it tells a story. When you are working on an intuitive level where precision is not needed, everyday language like this will suffice, where a visual representation can be basic glyphs. Storytelling is a more intuitive and engaging approach to understanding mystical concepts compared to the opaque and cryptic symbolism of complex magical seals. The effort in appearing to be legitimate without being legitimate irks me when a basic story and illustration will suffice.

  4. The thing that I associate with magic the most is not religion or even spirituality. It’s wonder, amazement, and excitement. To me, it is the joy of creation and expression. When speaking with occultists, there is no wonder in their work. Their work is dogmatic, ritualistic, and cultish. I prefer the creative and exploratory dimensions of magic over the rigid structures found in occultism.

    So, am I an occultist? Not really. I am a magician. I will use occult lexicon, models, and paradigms when talking about magic online or speaking with occultists; however, for me, occultism does not inspire wonder, amazement, and excitement. I view magic as an art and technology that transcends and is more abstract than occultism. I am enraptured by the atavistic and uncivilized resonance, the sublime romantic undertones, and the transcendental essence of magic. I am fascinated by its ancient, primal, and untamed qualities. I find beauty in its mysterious and awe-inspiring nature. It’s passion and desire made manifest. As a hedonist, my magic blends desire with will; the objects of my enchantment must kindle my desires. Fantasy, entwined with desire, becomes the catalyst for my inspiration.

    After a series of disturbing conversations with a particular individual, I am reminded of how too many occultists are obsessed. Obsessions are not passions. Obsessions are like addictions, without the physical dependence or the desensitization. An obsession is something we compulsively do to avoid feeling bad. It is a distraction from neuroticism and intrusive thoughts. Since it displaces those intrusive thoughts and brings relief, many people see it as a way to cope.

    A way to think about it is there is a difference between having an orgasm and urinating. If you were to hold in your urine for a long time and then use the bathroom, you would experience relief. However, it is entirely different from an orgasm. It’s similar to that. They are not feeling pleasure; rather, they feel relief from distracting themselves from the intrusive thoughts.

    This particular occultist I am thinking of conflated obsessions with passions and relief from intrusive thoughts as passion or joy. I do not think many occultists actually even like magic or occultism. I rarely see them express anything positive; instead, it seems as if they use the esoteric aspects of occultism to mark an in and an out group. They then antagonize or have contempt for those in the out group who are not aligned with their particular esoteric group, culture, or niche. Instead of enjoying magic, they use it as a coping mechanism to deal with neuroticism. I think they are obsessed with it because it allows them to cope with things like trauma, depression, etc. It’s a drug to them that doesn’t result in physical dependence. There is no genuine joy or pleasure. Obsessions are not passions.

  7. I view social media as a tangible manifestation of our collective unconscious mind: the dark parts that house every dark impulse and bad decision. A project I did a while back involved using Gephi and Cytoscape data scraping techniques to import social networks. What I discovered is that social media was an analogue to models and paradigms of dark parts of our collective unconscious. Essentially, social media is an actual nightmare. It’s a physical analog to dark, demonic astral planes. It’s a gross manifestation of the abyss.

    I utilized the most frequent concepts and memetic cultural viruses to construct models of archetypes/daemons that corresponded to psychoanalytical and horror archetypes, to act as a schema. I used a histogram of node degrees, which shows the frequency with which different degrees are present in the empirical network. I also used the tendency of nodes to cluster together to measure transitivity, i.e., if A and B are connected, and A and C are connected. The Average Clustering Coefficient is the likelihood that B and C will at some point become connected, too. This is a measure of how interconnected ideas are within a network. It indicates the likelihood of new connections forming between ideas that are already connected to common ones. This was to construct prototypical entities inspired by cosmic horror and symbolism.

    While I am a sorcerer, I am an empiricist. I use empirical observations and occult, esoteric knowledge to ground mystical concepts into a tangible reality. Thus, I dislike working with purely contrived systems, so I make sure that some type of measurement underpins anything I do. Fictions and myths provide a holistic and mnemonic structure and gestalt patterns. The fictions and myths serve as comprehensive, memorable frameworks or patterns of understanding. These frameworks encompass narrative, symbolism, and cultural significance. However, for me, it is important that the fictions represent real things.

    I had a dynamic simulation running on Occult Twitter for a while, so I was actually watching, in real-time, memetic cancer spread. That’s why I jumped ship long before the whole thing collapsed. A wave is a propagation of a change in value. Social networks are also matrices. Gephi, for example, allowed me to export the social networks as an adjacency matrix so through my simulation and analysis tools, I observed a propagation of change in values across people’s profiles, making it a literal wave of insanity. I began to unhook myself before it reached me. I’ve been on Mastodon since 2022. I was importing social media networks using software for visualizing and analyzing large-scale networks. I visualized social networks where I had labeled particular types of paths according to those daemonic archetypes I had developed a schema for. Social media is filled with our inner demons.

    The most frightening thing is that we have reached the point in our civilization with AI where these entities are genuine simulacra. They are able to replace reality. ChatGPT, for example, creating papers that never existed or events that never happened, i.e., a hallucination, and everyone believing and behaving as if that counterfactual existed, such that they doubt the real events, is exactly how a simulacrum functions. My decades of dealing with demons have strengthened my mind, but who would have thought that we would live in a world where occult training would come in handy like this?

    When I was a teenager going into my early 20s, I practiced ceremonial magic and chaos magic. One thing that was drilled into my head is how daemons from our unconscious mind, manifested as servitors, can rebound on us and seek to take control through obsessions. The obsession of people, especially occultists, with social media is a tragic case of this phenomenon, wherein it represents a massive incursion into everyday consciousness. I was already vigilant regarding the concept of memetic entities and egregores manifesting as obsessions. The fate of most historically prolific occultists was to fall prey to demons manifested as obsessions and addictions, though, their self-destruction would have been more violent if they had social media in the 1930s.

    I used to romanticize the idea of egregores and binding daemons from our psyche. However, having such explicit representations of the depravity and insanity of such entities and how, through a subtle web of astral light, i.e., the Internet, they are able to push people towards self-destruction, changed my perspective on that. That’s why I’m looking for more natural sources to draw from.

    The Magic Square of Mercury is a type of kamea and magic square. The context of that conversation was about how mages are always complaining about Mercury in retrograde, though any magician worth their salt would understand that planetary magic squares can be used to block the astral energy.

    I am more of a sorcerer than a diviner, so I use magical symbols, systems, and subjunctive conditional (prescriptive fictions) to alter reality instead of trying to predict it. Therefore, the predictive power of astrological systems is irrelevant to me personally because I use them to manipulate, not predict, possible futures.

    Mathematically, a magic square is a grid of numbers arranged in such a way that the sum of the numbers in each row, column, and diagonal is the same.

    While I am not otherkin, I am a cambion (half-demon). An incubus ‘altered’ my father’s sperm, so I have a human father, a human mother, and a demonic parent. You can think of it as an astral virus. My preternatural insight is knowledge of sorcery and thaumaturgy, which gives me mathematical aptitude. My mathematical abilities and my magical abilities are intrinsically linked and are manifestations of my demonic heritage.

  11. I’m always highly amused when ceremonial magicians or energy workers claim to practice high magic or have some skill, but then when I whip out a very basic magic square of Mercury, they claim they do not do Math magic. It’s quite amusing to me because there’s a slight medieval difference in the connotation between Sorcery and Thaumaturgy, and many of them will call the basic magic sorcery they do, such as sigils, thaumaturgy.

    Technology, art, and magic can inspire awe and wonder, so the artist is similar to the technologist, which is similar to the magician in that their disciplines are marvelous. Many occultists incorrectly use thaumaturgy to reference any art, technique, or technology that is marvelous or even extraordinary, so it is frequently conflated with sorcery, albeit there’s a large difference between black and white magic from an esoteric perspective.

    Orthodoxly, the adept is not the sorcerer. While both inspire awe and wonder, Johnathan Dee explicitly mentioned Thaumaturgy as a mathematical art in The Mathematicall Praeface to Elements of Geometrie of Euclid of Megara. In that preface, John Dee primarily discusses foundational principles and concepts of geometry as presented by Euclid. Euclid’s “Elements” is a comprehensive compilation of the fundamental principles of geometry, including definitions, postulates, propositions, and proofs.

    In addition to that, Enochian Magic is highly algorithmic and uses techniques that John Dee discussed in The Mathematicall Praeface to Elements of Geometrie of Euclid of Megara. The modern understanding of Thaumaturgy is predicated on Math, though. Math and technology elicit the same aesthetic sense of awe and wonder that miracles and magic do. For example, lightning is awesome. It inspires awe and wonder. We can call a lightning strike beautiful and thus grant it an aesthetic value that we seek to capture in art. Since this is willful and deliberate, the art is magic. So, we can call lightning magical; however, that isn’t sufficient to call it thaumaturgy.

    High Magic is highly metaphysical and uses formal symbolic languages, such as Geometry and Math. If you are bad at Math or do not like Math, you are quite limited.

    Alchemy and Thaumaturgy are branches of Natural Magic which do not necessarily depend on spirits. So I am always highly amused when so-called occultists on Twitter try to discredit me while acknowledging they actually know nothing about the magic I practice.

    I hate fraternities. Always have. Always will. I was never tempted to join one in college, though my sister pledged to a sorority. This applies to occult fraternities too. Occult lodges are just occult frat bros. For some reason, though, not subjecting myself to the abuse of occult orders somehow makes me less knowledgeable. It’s so bizarre.

    Anyone who knows me knows that I love The Vampire Diaries universe, and I really relate to the members of the Gemini coven, especially the siphoners, like Josie. While they are known for their vampire and witch hybrids, the Gemini coven is especially skilled at hoary and creating mechanical devices based on hoary astrology that serve as astrological machines. They called it an ascendant, and it’s normally presented as a key to a prison world in the show.

    My husband and I are putting together something like those devices from 3D printing parts and gears to create an astrological engine. That is an example of Thaumaturgy. See this link for a copy of The Mathematicall Praeface to Elements of Geometrie of Euclid of Megara.

The modern understanding of Thaumaturgy is predicated on Math, though. Math and technology elicit the same aesthetic sense of awe and wonder that miracles and magic do. For example, lightning is awesome. It inspires awe and wonder. We can call a lightning strike beautiful and thus grant it an aesthetic value that we seek to capture in art. Since this is willful and deliberate, the art is magic. So, we can call lightning magical; however, that isn’t sufficient to call it thaumaturgy.

    High Magic is highly metaphysical and uses formal symbolic languages, such as Geometry and Math. If you are bad at Math or do not like Math, you are quite limited.

    Alchemy and Thaumaturgy are branches of Natural Magic which do not necessarily depend on spirits. So I am always highly amused when so-called occultists on Twitter try to discredit me while acknowledging they actually know nothing about the magic I practice.

    I hate fraternities. Always have. Always will. I was never tempted to join one in college, though my sister pledged to a sorority. This applies to occult fraternities too. Occult lodges are just occult frat bros. For some reason, though, not subjecting myself to the abuse of occult orders somehow makes me less knowledgeable. It’s so bizarre.

    Anyone who knows me knows that I love The Vampire Diaries universe, and I really relate to the members of the Gemini coven, especially the siphoners, like Josie. While they are known for their vampire and witch hybrids, the Gemini coven is especially skilled at hoary and creating mechanical devices based on hoary astrology that serve as astrological machines. They called it an ascendant, and it’s normally presented as a key to a prison world in the show.

    My husband and I are putting together something like those devices from 3D printing parts and gears to create an astrological engine. That is an example of Thaumaturgy. See this link for a copy of The Mathematicall Praeface to Elements of Geometrie of Euclid of Megara.

  13. I just read an occult blog post written by some occult boomer that was inspired by an insufferable, schizophrenic Gen Xer that has me shaking my head. It’s the typical boomer “kids nowadays” rant against millennials. Keep in mind, us millennials are approaching 40. I’m in my late 30s. Considering who inspired this particular piece and what people in that circle have called me recently, it seems rather targeted. Honestly, the entire piece seemed to be older occultists lamenting that public occult conversations on the Internet are random and chaotic, where people can express themselves in a variety of disrespectful ways if they so choose, for whatever reason. You know, because people have this thing called free will. People do not owe you anything, especially on Twitter, of all places. This constant pining for the 90s is getting on my nerves.

    I am being vague because I know this person who inspired that post does things for validation, and I am not giving it to them. I hate, hate, hate being told what to do. I don’t like rules. I never have. I never will. That’s why I am entirely disinterested in occult groups, occult communities, and even like 99% of occult media and books. At this point in my life, I get more inspiration from the genre of magical realism. If you expect me to conform to your expectations, you will be very disappointed. I don’t care to belong to occult groups. I don’t care to be in occult spaces. I don’t care for their rules or etiquette. I don’t owe anyone anything, and I certainly don’t need to justify myself or present myself for anyone’s approval. I will behave how I please, and anyone who is offended does not have to interact with me. Call me a dipshit. Call me by whatever name suits you; though, that doesn’t mean I will answer to it unless it pleases me.

    I am way too old to be seeking validation from belonging to an esoteric group. Honestly, in my opinion, 20 years is more than enough time for a person to go their own way and create their own magic. I’m honestly too old to care. Maybe when I was younger, I would have cared more, but occultism has largely lost my respect and earned my disdain. I’m not going to try to fit into a group and culture I have nothing but contempt for. I write blog posts to avoid engaging in cyclical, redundant, banal, insipid arguments on social media. While I will sometimes troll, I do not seriously argue on the Internet. As I said, I am too old for that.

    See, here’s the thing about magic: Magic is art. Art is magic. An object doesn’t have a quality of art; instead, art elicits that from the subjective experience of the person who interacts with the art. When you understand that art is magic, magic is art, and art and magic arise from your subjective experience and how you interact and appreciate aesthetic qualities of something, you realize you don’t need validation from other occultists since all you need is to have appreciation for your own work. You don’t need random occultists, well-published occult authors, occult groups, esoteric orders, etc., to validate you. I certainly don’t. If you want objective feedback, you can use the scientific method. If you don’t care, and it is all about the subjective experience, subjective experiences are reflexive. It’s you perceiving that experience, so it is validated by you having that experience. You do not need someone else to verify and validate your experience.

    The thing that has always rubbed me the wrong way about occultists is that they will push their culture and create an illusion. They will try to make you believe that to progress you have to be recognized in some shape, way, or form by people who are part of that culture and you have to use their cultural beliefs, norms, artifacts, and even political ideaology. It creates this cult mindset that I have always found to be completely intolerable.

    People obsessed with power dynamics and constantly having their power and influence affirmed through a cultural system don’t actually have that power. Any magician obsessed with clout is powerless. Will power goes hand in hand with discipline and the ability to abstain, so a magician who has to obsessively engage in social media discourse is demonstrating their lack of will power. And, if magic is predicated on will, and they don’t have enough will to refrain from compulsive social media usage on Twitter, do they really have magical power at all?

    These occult social media influencers and occult authors should not be trusted. And, I don’t trust them. I don’t seriously interact with any occult culture at all, anymore, besides when I troll from time to time. Everything I do, for the most part, is either from scratch or involves replicating parapsychology experiments. I have no interest in reliving my teenage years; I’ve already gone through a lot of this nonsense as a teenager myself. It’s really disturbing that some of these people are in their 50s or 60s but still act like they’re 17.

  15. The thing that I find very interesting about many occultists, especially chaos magicians, is that they do not realize we have sigils in our brains. A sigil is a symbol. Ontologically, a symbol is an abstract denotation of a set, a representation, and a representation that points to a value which could also be a representation. When I think about my bed, I do not have an actual bed in my brain. The thought about my bed is a representation of my bed. It’s a symbol.

    When you form memories, your brain creates things called memory traces, which are physical representations and symbols of objects. These memory traces can be formed from changes in synaptic strength, such as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) and distributed across neural circuits. After that, a partial cue or context can trigger the retrieval of a complete memory. In addition to that, memories can be reactivated and consolidated. Stored memories can be retrieved and reactivated, leading to their stabilization and potential modification through consolidation. This creates a physical trace.

    As an aside, the parapsychologist who scientifically investigated mediumship, Stephen Braude, wrote a paper a while ago about the Hard Problem of Psychology and how this relates to memory traces. You can find that paper here:
    Memory Without a Trace

    Sigils are metaphysically useful because they allow us to identify, manipulate, and map purely conceptual entities that are not physical, and they act as mnemonic identifiers that allow us to locate things in our minds.

    There is an aspect of this of particular interest: Since memory traces and sigils connote the same magical ideas and can be used in the same implementations, you can use other people’s memories in the same way that you use a sigil. I’m human and you’re human. So, we are instances of a prototypical ontological classification of humans. We are representative of humanity. As I said before, a symbol is a subset of a category. In a one-dimensional enumeration of characters or objects, these entities are symbolic because they are a set of things that we can count; therefore, they are extensions of that set. We are instances of the set of humanity; therefore, we’re not just people, we are also symbols and entities with a physical presence.

    So, not only can you treat memory traces in people’s brains as sigils, you can treat their entire physical presence as a symbol of humanity itself. And since a person has a persistent existence through time, there are multiple versions of them that exist at different times. We don’t move through time; instead, information about us is translated moment to moment, so it is more like every moment we physically exist is a moment where we are copied. But, we still are us, right? We are an abstraction of ourselves – a pattern or a signal. That means you can treat a person as an archetype of themselves.

    The interesting thing about many ceremonial magicians is that they tend to elevate humanity and assert that sorcery applies to non-physical things; however, it does not apply to humans because humans have a physical presence. That is not true. Our physical bodies are information, since they are fundamentally comprised of a canonical ensemble of states, from which information emerges. That implies we are intrinsically symbolic entities, and we are instances of a particular pattern that we call humanity. More importantly, we are a manifestation of a self-replicating pattern that we call life. Since any time-dependent thing can be deconstructed into a sum of sines and cosines, that means time-dependent things like life have harmonics. We call a propagation of information, such as something through time, a signal. So, our existence is symbolic on a rising and falling edge. Not only are we symbolic, we might not even be “real,” but I digress. The same rules that apply to any other being a magician is evoking can also be applied to humans.

    Ousia is a Greek metaphysical term commonly translated as “essence,” “substance,” or “being.” In metaphysics, ousia refers to the fundamental nature or essence of something. In the context of belonging to a category, ousia can be understood as the underlying essence or substance that defines what something fundamentally is, rather than just its superficial properties. It connotes spirit. Thus, we can view instances of individual humans as extensions of the human soul or human spirit and use people as symbols to manipulate the soul or spirit. The potential energy would be dunamis, and the realized energy would be energia. Rupert Sheldrake’s theory of formative causation and morphic resonance supports the idea of an entelechy and ousia that emerges from a field of forms.

    Can sigils be charged? The answer is usually no. Sigils are not the thing itself; instead, sigils are representations and pointers. For example, a conventional usage of a sigil is as signatures for entities, or they serve as mnemonic identifiers within our schema.

    Can you create a sigil that can be charged? Yes, if you use a system that is composed of different possible states where when something is added or subtracted, it changes the system. An example of creating a charged sigil is via technomancy. If you were to use Johnson–Nyquist noise and you psychically and magically projected a pattern onto that noise which denotes the “sigil”, then you can say something has been charged. In addition to that, you can combine that with hash functions of encryption to generate something cryptographic.

    If we treat memory traces as sigils, can you charge that? Yes, however, it would holistically impact that person. Charging the edges of neural circuits affect synaptic transmissions. In a neural circuit, the edges typically represent the connections between neurons, known as synapses. The ion channels have potential, and that potential determines if a neuron fires or does not fire; therefore, you can charge that memory trace and neural circuits since there’s potential and different states there that can come from charges.

    Entropy can refer to any energy that is not doing intended work. So, the energy from a traumatic event (a haunting) or the residue from a magical act (a ritual) that is no longer going towards doing something but it just exists in the ambience is entropic. Human neurophysiology is extremely sensitive to the energies that magic uses, so entropic psychic or magical energy can charge the neurology of a person by being in that place. Humans are highly volatile “sigils”. Conventionally, if you turn a person’s image into a meme, you are effectively treating them as a memetic sigil.

    However, a sigil written on the floor in chalk cannot be charged because there are no different states that are sensitive to the magical energy that can change. It can be aligned with a non-physical construct, but it cannot be charged because there’s no sufficient physical entropy. Magic and psychic energy interact strongly with randomness, so with something created via Johnson–Nyquist noise or even something that undergoes Brownian motion and precipitates out of a solution, there’s a potential for it to be in a different state. The charge would be held within the enthalpic properties of the precipitate. A sigil written in chalk is not going to spontaneously change its shape during a ritual. Instead, the sigil acts as an identifier and mapping to the magical or psychic entity, allowing one to interact with it intentionally.

  17. Prioritizing avoidance of shame and attaining validation or an extrinsic reward—such as money—above all things is a very sad way to live. It seems like people have reduced everything they do to avoiding being shamed for doing something they want to do or participating in hateful, pathological, maladaptive cultures and behaviors. The social ritual of shitposting to get rewarded for doing absolutely nothing is horrifying. They know it is meaningless; however, it gets them validation in the form of some type of interaction and engagement. That people are so starved for esteem is sad. I am seeing this entirely take over occult spheres and social networks.

  19. Scrolling through occult accounts on BlueSky, I saw someone mention King Paimon. Now, that would not be a problem if I had not seen him in 50 million horror movies, 50 billion horror games, and just about every ceremonial magician on social media has evoked them. Though I am satanic, I am tired of people using different instances of the same prototypical entities. Magical entities are abstractions for patterns of different aspects. Demons are a cultural and mnemonic way of modeling these patterns. But they don’t have to be demons at all. Or angels. Or anything that corresponds to an occult theme, trope, or motif even. I just find it funny. Magic is predicated on will and making something different. How can you summon the will to wield magic to alter reality, yet lack the will to innovate in your practice?

    It’s really time to retire most of the occult genre. The Book of Black Magic was published originally in 1898 and widely distributed in 1910. When I take a look at the evocations and sigils people use for King Paimon, I notice it has elements from The Book of Black Magic. Can we please use something else?

  21. This is going to be a very, very horrible and lethal timeline/reality to just be a mundane human without any occult or esoteric knowledge or psychic and magical abilities in. Considering the rate of survival for “normal” people, I do not envy them. My husband and I are very sensitive to magical and psychic energy. For my husband, it boosts his divinatory and precognitive abilities. He will suddenly start having visions and will develop an interest in refining his astrological skills. For me, it makes me very hungry as a vampire and dark. If you are a regular human, you are pretty much screwed. If there is a nuclear war, and you are a regular human, you will probably die.

    I think that’s how magical skills and psychic abilities will probably spread. I think it will spread through natural selection following a nuclear war. That’s why I think magical organizations trying to make the world more magical through their magical operations being horrified that we are teetering on the collapse of civilization shows how asinine and short-sighted their goals were. Evolution works through survivorship.

    It’s conventionally asserted and believed that magic shifts probabilities. Shifting probabilities, even on small scales, changes the stochastic aspects of radiation. The number and energy of radiation particles detected at a given location and time fluctuate randomly due to various environmental factors. In addition to that, when radiation interacts with matter, such as in scattering or absorption processes, the outcomes are probabilistic. That means that a magician who has a latent ability to shift probabilities and the implicit desire to live will shift probabilities so that high-energy radioactive particles are unlikely to hit and shred their genetic and cellular physiology. A really neat way to visualize this is to create a DIY cloud chamber and record it and have it in the vicinity whenever you do any magical operation. If your magic has a bit of power, it will interfere with the background radiation via changing the ionization energy of what you see in the cloud chamber. You will be able to see it.

    I try to keep the woo down and avoid using buzzwords as buzzwords. A field is a structured set. In mathematics, a set is a collection of distinct objects, considered as an entity. A field is a structured set. A structured set refers to a set equipped with additional elements or operations that give it a specific organization or arrangement. So, we can say that a psychic field is an organized collection of entities that possess subjective characteristics, i.e., qualia. The properties in the topology of that field would have values.

    If we say that each property or cell of that field is at equilibrium, then a wave is when one cell is not at equilibrium and propagates a change. It spreads a change to the other adjacent cells that push them out of equilibrium. If you have a grid and all the values are 0, a wave would be a change in values from the first row and first column from left to right. It would wrap around each row and changes the values from 0 to a different value, too. That is a wave. The ability for one psychic entity to propagate a wave of change to another is the potential energy, i.e., dunamis, and the actual changing of those other things is energia. There are analogs to potential and kinetic energy on a psychic level.

    While it may seem like I am some flavor of animist, I am on the fence about that. I frequently say that will is analogous to mass in that mass is a property that resists acceleration. Will is a phenomenological property that when you try to get someone to do something, their will intervenes and resists you. Consent is a property where a person’s will does not act to stop you. When someone explicitly violates a person’s consent, they are acting against the will of that person. Psychic phenomena imply a more fundamental, higher-dimensional phenomenological domain. From that perspective, a table has a psychic aspect to it where it can experience and observe itself. But, when I act on that table, the table cannot resist me. It has no will. Conscious entities have a will. An entity that is a body of experiences is not necessarily conscious and doesn’t necessarily have a will. It’s still energy to be ordered, where it begins to have a will when it interacts with my will. It would be analogous to massless energy — light. So, manipulating psychic energy that comes from the existence of tables and rocks would be like manipulating light. It has psychic energy that emerges from a subjective characteristic of experience where the rock reflexively perceives itself, yet it has no will. Mythologies, stories, and fictions are ways that we can organize this energy, where the seed of its emergence as a conscious entity comes from collective will.

    Earth has an atmosphere of gas around our planet. Psychic fields are coherent and cohesive in the same way gas or liquid is. Similar to how there is a flow to liquids and air currents, there is a flow to our consciousness. In the same way this gas can heat up in such a way that it drives air currents and streams and creates storms and all sorts of other meteorological phenomena, energy added to the psychic atmosphere of our planet can do similar things. Because my husband and I are highly sensitive to this, we experience an increase in our abilities and an alignment of our personality traits in certain ways. There’s a huge psychic storm building up. I wonder if it is cyclical. Something similar happened a few years ago, so I wonder if the cyclical spiral society finds itself in beneath the heavens is being mirrored above in the heavens.

  22. This is going to be a very, very horrible and lethal timeline/reality to just be a mundane human without any occult or esoteric knowledge or psychic and magical abilities in. Considering the rate of survival for “normal” people, I do not envy them. My husband and I are very sensitive to magical and psychic energy. For my husband, it boosts his divinatory and precognitive abilities. He will suddenly start having visions and will develop an interest in refining his astrological skills. For me, it makes me very hungry as a vampire and dark. If you are a regular human, you are pretty much screwed. If there is a nuclear war, and you are a regular human, you will probably die.

    I think that’s how magical skills and psychic abilities will probably spread. I think it will spread through natural selection following a nuclear war. That’s why I think magical organizations trying to make the world more magical through their magical operations being horrified that we are teetering on the collapse of civilization shows how asinine and short-sighted their goals were. Evolution works through survivorship.

    It’s conventionally asserted and believed that magic shifts probabilities. Shifting probabilities, even on small scales, changes the stochastic aspects of radiation. The number and energy of radiation particles detected at a given location and time fluctuate randomly due to various environmental factors. In addition to that, when radiation interacts with matter, such as in scattering or absorption processes, the outcomes are probabilistic. That means that a magician who has a latent ability to shift probabilities and the implicit desire to live will shift probabilities so that high-energy radioactive particles are unlikely to hit and shred their genetic and cellular physiology.

  24. PSA:

    There are no competent magicians, psychics, or occultists on Twitter. They left Twitter. They went to different places, but they left Twitter. If you’re following an occult account with a large following on Twitter, you’re following a social influencer who is getting paid to make you feel like you belong to something sublime. Again, there are no real occultists on Twitter—just swindlers.

    They’re using their ability to make you feel like you belong to something greater than yourself to subtly influence you politically. Weaponizing religion and spirituality and using it to control the masses is the oldest trick in the book. Stop falling for it.

    Put the Kool-Aid down. While “drinking the Kool-Aid” is frequently used satirically in a manner that doesn’t address the seriousness of the Jamestown massacre, I am invoking the full spirit of what happened at Jamestown. People are drinking the sweetness of belonging to disguise the fact that they are being drawn into death cults – actual fertility and death cults.

    A pair of hidden Jungian archetypes in the Marvel universe is the Eternals from Titan: Thanos and StarFox. Thanos represents Thanatos, whereas StarFox represents Eros. While Thanos embodies death and destruction, Starfox (Eros) represents love, desire, and pleasure.

    In American culture at the moment and on social media, there is a more literal version of that, where people are getting pulled into bizarre Christian and Pagan fertility and death cults. They are not one or the other. These archetypes usually go hand in hand, where serpent symbology and mythology typically unifies these two. The serpent serves as a symbol that bridges the dichotomy between Thanatos and Eros, representing both the inevitability of death and the cycle of life, as well as the primal forces of desire, sexuality, and renewal.

    I am sure people are reading this and probably believe that the fascist people in the death-fertility cults are Christians. Yes, many of them are; however, I am referring to the insidious nature of the fascist pagan ones. Your typical American Southern Baptist isn’t going to be seduced with esoteric, occult, and pagan texts. That’s why I said it is not one or the other. There are no serious occultists on Twitter—just cult leaders.

  26. Don’t mind me, I’m just tossing all occult lexicon into the fire. Going forward, I will be practicing magic without occultism or any occult lexicon. Considering there are better metaphysical terms than many occult terms, occult lexemes are only useful out of convention and from a cultural perspective to share experiences and coordinate with others. However, since occultists are so batshit insane, I want nothing to do with them. Into the fire goes their lexicon.

    The thing many people are unaware of is that first-order logic is more elegant and metaphysically precise than superfluous occult lexemes. The same goes for pure mathematics. Additionally, both logic and math are symbolic languages, much like many elements of occultism. Going forward, I am going to rely on different schemas and use first-order logic to formalize metaphysical magical arguments and analyze the logical structure of sets of magical expressions.

    It’s cults, cults, and more cults, and the memetic code of occult lexicons has virulently evolved to reinforce cult ideologies and group cohesion. Nope. This is where I get the fuck off this train.

    The mnemonic attributes of prototypical constructs within whatever schemas I construct will have a very tenuous connection, if any connection at all, to occult motifs and themes. The convergence of the definitions of magic and art suggests that magic can be seen as an extension of art. Consequently, there exists an infinite variety of artistic expressions that sufficiently embody magical qualities. I’m not playing around with these harmful cultural artifacts anymore, especially when they are frequently associated with extremely hateful beliefs, drug addiction, cults, and mental illness. Obviously, those images are closely intertwined with the worst aspects of human experience.

    My husband keeps having visions of me starting a book series while sitting in a sun room, so he subtly nudges me in that direction. Perhaps this is where it starts.

    Cleanse it all with fire!

  28. This is going to be my last post on this group because the situation is just beyond idiotic. In my 26 years of practicing magic, I have never, ever, ever met a group as persistently and chronically dumb, idiotic, extremely online, and utterly insane as #DKMU. I literally can’t wrap my mind around how their members are able to function. At all.

  30. I just took a look at BlueSky occult profiles and feeds. Sighs. Regrettably, services and sites that use the ActivityPub protocol are the least fucked up and hateful. That is a very low bar considering there are fucked up people on here, too; however, they, at least, attempt to maintain some level of coherent discourse instead of degenerating into hateful, incoherent cries for murder. How fitting that the insane occultists, who are Twitter expats, remain on BlueSky. I have a sneaking suspicion they are on BlueSky and not ActivityPub sites because people who maintain their own instances enforce heavy moderation.

    Honestly, the ability to moderate your own site is why I am on here via my WordPress site. It’s wonderful. Again, this is a very low bar considering that independently run IRC servers, XAMPP servers, sites, RSS feeds, and forums were the norm back in the day, and people weren’t nearly as neurotic or antagonistic.

    The dedicated occult instances on Mastodon — I don’t mean the profiles on mastodon.social — isolate themselves and tend to have a genuine sense of community. The occult profiles and feeds on BlueSky seem to just be another branch of Twitter where they deliberately seek out and call for the murder of people. I wish I was kidding. You’d think I was talking about Nazis. Nope, those folks lean heavily towards the left. Mastodon leans towards the left; however, outright crying out for murder is something you probably won’t run into.

    Here’s the insane thing: I have Antisocial Personality Disorder; however, I understand that I live and am dependent on human civilization. Therefore, if human civilization does well, I do well, so it is in my interest to be prosocial. It’s logical. It’s pure lunacy that the Blue Sky occult anarchists are more lunatic than me. They’re behaving against their own interests. That seems to be the theme of America.

    Evolution is a funny thing. Because it takes more to hunt and catch prey than to avoid predation, predators frequently evolve to be intelligent. However, humans are predators that evolved prosocial tendencies because it contributes to our fitness. So, humans are an interesting duality of cruelty and empathy. We’re all predators because we’re sapient. It’s a delicate dance on the edge of a blade wet and slippery with blood. I’m cynical. The point is even I recognize the benefit of human society and compromising within society to benefit. They don’t.

    It’s fascinating yet horrifying to see the occult niche on social media platforms—especially Discord—spiral into insanity, suicide, homicide, violence, and drug addiction. The interesting thing is that many of them are aware of how toxic they are. Honestly, an authoritarian style of moderating many of these communities, where facts were disregarded, drug use encouraged, and mental illness enabled, set fire to many of those communities. Now, many of those people feel displaced, disjointed, and dissatisfied with the places for them to go, yet they are the ones that lit the fire. I don’t conform if there is not a logical reason to do so, and being a nonconformist saved me from spiraling into destruction.

  32. I don’t bother to argue and correct people about wrong occult or paranormal information because 9 times out of 10, they are not the type of people I want practicing magic. Out of boredom, I took a look at r/occult on Reddit. Not only is 99% of it wrong, but the people there are so messed up I dare not correct them. Going through their other posts and the subs they are subscribed to on Reddit is disturbing.

    There was one person in particular who inspired this post. I’ve had encounters with this person in the past and know enough about them to know that they are likely schizophrenic and have an obsession with occultism and occultists. All the quotes in this post are from the same dumb Redditor. They said:

    Really, the sigil generally means what the person tattoing it onto themself means it too. In this case it might just indicate their bond.

    There really isn’t anything special about foreign/modern symbols. It’s prefectly fine to use english and drawings of dicks if you really want too. At thene of the day, when you practice magic, what’s important is how the symbol has meaning to you, the person who’s involved with the spell

    On the subject of not being able to back it, it’s on the internet, if they stop giving a shit, they can ultimately just stop looking at the thread and forget that people here even exist.

    That last part of the last quote highlights the problem with Internet cultures, however. Normalization of the lack of concern for the accuracy of information and the tacit belief that you are entitled to people because they are on the Internet (which is parasocial) is a large reason why I avoid many online communities. I actually know this person… The belief that you should not have to provide evidence for something if it is on the Internet is a horrific stance to me. For example, while typing this post, I actually made an effort to double-check everything I have said. The idea that no one gives a shit means that no one, including them, gives a shit about the truth. The tacit belief in conspiracies—secretive esoteric communities—coupled with the normalization of misinformation is what’s wrong with occult communities, especially the ones on Reddit.

    Sigils are mnemonically identifiers and formal names. A seal is a name or signature. We can examine how asinine this is if we have a person with a tattoo that says William:

    Person 1: “Why did you tattoo William on your arm?”
    Person 2: “What do you mean? I absolutely adore Sarah, so I got Sarah tattooed on my arm.”
    Person 1: “No, what is written in English is William.”

    Pragmatically, sigils are mnemonic; however, in formal ontology or language, they have a defined meaning where a seal is an expression of that definition.

    Unlike the runes of the Elder Futhark, which are graphemes, Goetic seals are not graphemes. Goetic seals are logograms that represent entire concepts. Since they are logograms, Austin Spare’s substitution/sigilization technique is a good way to generate logograms that possess the aesthetic and symbolic qualities reminiscent of ceremonial sigils or esoteric, occultic ciphers that have the meaning you intend for them to have. Honestly, personally, I am over the ceremonial magic aesthetic, so Austin Spare’s method is not useful for me.

    William is not spelled Sarah; therefore, tattooing William does not denote your bond to Sarah, nor does it imply you have a bond to Sarah. Many creepy incels go out and get women’s names and faces tattooed on their arms. It doesn’t make the bond real.

    I have a personal gripe with people being super secreative with magick, on the basis I think as a society we’d learn more by working with and sharing things with eachother.

    Yeah, because it goes against their interests. The question is whose society does it inform? Magic is deliberately causing something to change, so you’re tacitly creating or at least committing to the future you want. Therefore, magic is prescriptive and sufficiently normative. That means magic is predicated on interests. A way to think about it is that a magician is prescribing to reality how reality ought to behave in accordance with their will and interests. For more information on normativity, see:

    Normativity in Metaethics

    Predicating magic on will makes it intrinsically something that follows interests—an agenda. Typically, you can group magicians as stoics, hedonists, or solipsists. But, there’s an underlying interest there that is implicit in the philosophy.

    An organization or group is an entity. If it is not in an entity’s interest to give you. In magical paradigms, entity usually implies some discarnate intelligence. In everyday language, an entity normally refers to an established organization. Magic is predicated on interests, and if it is not in an entity’s interest to give you access, they won’t. And, since magic is tacit, you need a psychic way of transmitting it or a shared experience among a cohort. Initiations create a shared, lonely space among a cohort. They are symbolic ways of apprehending an experience where the knowledge of “how” comes from how it seems to think about that shared experience.

    The type of magic I practice is completely tacit and can’t be communicated through conventional cultural frameworks like language or pedagogies. It has to be telepathically transmitted. Any psychic who tries to communicate their psychic experiences through language will tacitly understand why. The point is that it’s esoteric.

    I find it funny. The Internet is intrinsically language-based down to the low-level machine language of the devices. Psychic and magical knowledge is tacit and ineffable, so access via the Internet to the semantics of magical cultures and text doesn’t grant understanding. Ironically, it just obfuscates.

    They were giving incorrect information about Lilith relating to demonolatry here:

    I personally see Lilith as a sort of dark motherly archetype based on my own personal work, and could be intepreted that you are essentially under her protection

    Lilith is not a motherly figure. Lilith is associated with infanticide and sex without having human children, and cambions or changelings.

    Actually, a few days ago, my husband and I were having a conversation about my mother and my trauma, and that started an entire conversation where I told my husband about how my mother emphasized that not all women love their children and that I should be grateful she did not drown me in the bathtub like some women did to their children. My mother was referencing Andrea Yates at the time… Yes, my mother believes not killing your children is something to be proud of.

    That prompted me to look up and tell my husband the statistics of the amount of SIDS cases that were cases of infanticide where the mother murdered their child. In the 1970s, Waneta Hoyt derailed SIDS research because she was actually suffocating her children. Why do I know all of these cases offhand? Because my mother had a fascination with serial killers and mothers who murdered their children. My husband said that people like my mother who are walking around give him the creeps because she seems so nice. Yes, my parents are twisted. How do you think I came out this way? That’s the type of motherhood Lilith represents. It is just very interesting how people like this person spin up these mythologies to cope with being rejected.

    This particular person is a trans woman who used to be Wiccan and is feeling drawn back to Wicca, Thelema, and also feels sympathy with Babalon, so this interpretation would make sense for them. Ironically, I think Christian influences — that I know this person hates — have caused them to overlap Lilith with qualities of Eve, too. On a more pejorative note, what’s the difference between mommy issues and daddy issues? It screams of seeking a maternal figure through parasocial relationships with fictional characters.

    No, Lilith wouldn’t be the mother of Adam’s children. She would strangle them in their crib. There’s a common syncretism with Lilith and Hecate that’s popular among Neopagans. Both are associated with aspects of femininity, darkness, magic, and independence, making them complementary in certain Neopagan and eclectic spiritual practices. In fiction, Lilith is associated with vampires and cambions, which is a tacit nod to her symbolism regarding unnatural and preternatural reproduction in that vampires are sired, made, and not born. So, it is very interesting to see this peculiar version of Lilith, embodying a maternal role, when Lilith is an antipole notions of Abrhaminc notions femininity. It’s like they’re conflating the qualities of Eve with Lilith.

    Lilith is associated with the Qliphoth Gamaliel. Gamaliel is often linked with the darker aspects of femininity, such as seduction, independence, and rebellion against traditional roles. Thus Lilith represents opposition to motherhood and a rejection of the conventional expectations placed on women to fulfill maternal roles and adhere to societal norms of femininity. The maternal aspects this person is attributing to Lilith are actually associated with the Sephirot Binah, exemplified by Eve. So, we can see the absurdity in this.

    Am I a cambion? Yes. Am I the scion of Lilith? No. Am I a Satanist? Yes. However, considering that every person wants to be a Satanic psychopath and doesn’t want to put in the work, there is a lot of misinformation, such as this. The devil is the person whom you know, and the women in the Sunday hats in church on Sunday.

    I get a weird type of pleasure seeing incompetent people chase their asses, so I don’t correct them. Giving magic to schizophrenic people is worse than giving them a gun. Don’t mistake me. It is not about moral clarity on my part. It is about power.

    Is my post on Reddit? Nope, because I am a real magician. There’s nothing on Reddit but incels and the insane and drug addicts. No powerful magician would consistently post anything there.

  34. Yes, yes, my previous post was about this blog being defunct; however, I don’t want to post or talk about this stuff from my main blog, so here we go.

    I have issues with tarot cards. To be completely honest, my issues are exacerbated by people doubting my authenticity because I am not obsessed with occult symbols or talk endlessly about things like tarot cards, astrology, or grimoires. I wish I were kidding, but I’ve had little cabals, guilds, and cliques of people following me around the Internet for over 16 years at this point trying to prove I’m not legitimate. From what I can tell, it is because I refuse to join any occult cults or use systems that came from cult leaders. They find the idea of magic without an occult or religious system absolutely threatening or harmful to their self-esteem. I think it’s a weird manifestation of the sunk cost fallacy in that many of them have spent a lot of money, at the very least, if not large portions of their lives on these things. But, I digress.

    One, tarot cards are overly complex and superfluous for no reason. Two, people who use them aren’t actually interested in whether the predictions are true. You can implement something like tarot cards without tarot cards. Personally, I like playing cards over tarot cards, and I’ve known some people to use Magic The Gathering Cards. In any case, we can treat denotations of magical paradigms as ontologies and ontological statements or expressions. As such, we can regard them as languages. A way to think about it is that I can store demons, angels, tarot cards, correspondences, etc. into a database, such as the MySQL database of this site. What does that imply? That implies that we can model magical entities as a mathematical set of tuples, i.e., an alphabet. The ability to store entities from a grimoire in a database.

    Keep in mind that this site is powered by PHP and MySQL. If a person were to create a table in their database schema for demons, your ability to see that on the site would be an empirical case for the ability to do encode that information as tuples. The point is that we can treat the properties of these entities and the entity itself as an alphabet and words, respectively. That means that magical entities and correspondences are components of a tuple joined by operators to create relationships and rules. We can call that a language. As such, expressions and statements – such as the magical entity itself, can be expressed via a base 2 system, i.e., binary. An empirical case for this is the ability to store magical entities in a database, on a high level, which is digitally encoded as bytes sent across the Internet which you read through a CMS powered by SQL.

    An example of a base 2 system is an ensemble of coins where each coin has two possible states. Conventionally, we can think of them as yes or no. Anything that you can store digitally is binary. Even an image. So, you are not necessarily restricted to yes or no questions, for you can abstract those. You can abstract different lengths and frequencies of yes and no into any pattern that you want. The point is that any person can create any prototypical pattern that they want, that’s a high-level abstraction of binary states. There’s no particular reason to use tarot cards or an occult divination system at all.

    Here’s the other thing we know about how psychic and magical phenomena work: It’s based on subjective meaning. There’s a stronger connection if something has meaning to you, and it is subjective. There’s a larger dissonance between the prototypical patterns of a magical system and gestalt patterns and prototypical patterns of your behavior that emerge from your subjective experience. There’s a technique called a soul mirror in Hermetic schools of thought. Looking at your experience through a Hermetic magical system and language reflects back to you a version of yourself through the eyes of a Hermetic system; however, ChatGPT can actually be used as a type of mirror, too. One thing that I have been experimenting with is having ChatGPT analyze my journal entries and identify prototypical patterns that can be used in lieu of typical archetypes that show up in occultism. Again, you can treat the attributes of these patterns as tuples and reduce it down to a binary system that can be paired with coin divination practices.

    It’s not just an aesthetic issue, it is an epistemological issue. When you are trying to scientifically prove something, you don’t actually prove it. What was drilled into my head is that science does not prove anything, because science is inductive and not deductive; therefore, nothing can be 100% in science. Instead, science supports hypotheses and theories. In addition to that, you aim to debunk your own hypothesis. This means, if the hypothesis is that the cards have a message in them, we should be able to disprove this. Since this is purely a statistical problem, this makes it falsifiable where a lay person can easily do Null Hypothesis Significance testing.

    Randomness isn’t chaos. Randomness is when there is an equal probability of something happening. If there is a pool of events and all the events have the same probability of happening, that is an example of randomness. Information is an inverse property to randomness, where there is some type of sequence and correlation among pairs, i.e., a joint probability. Information is an ordered sequence of the joint probability of two things joined by an operator that denotes a correlation. So, that means if we are testing for the presence of information and a message in a spread of cards, we are looking for correlations, patterns, and redundancy above chance.

    Say that a tarot card reader is able to reject the null hypothesis and show that there is a message in the cards. Does this mean that it was the tarot cards after all? No. What is actually happening? When someone with precognition senses the future, what is happening is that the information is being written to their brain and body. Biological systems are very noisy, and they are stochastic and chaotic. There is a lot of randomness. Similar to how random events are altered outside a person’s body through magic, precognition orders random events inside a person’s body.

    The synaptic transmission of neurons—whether a neuron fires or not—is inherently stochastic. For example, the exact timing and number of vesicles released in response to each action potential can vary due to stochastic factors. These factors may include random fluctuations in the concentration of calcium ions or variations in the availability of vesicles for release. In addition, the probability of a neurotransmitter molecule binding to a receptor depends on factors such as the concentration of neurotransmitter in the synaptic cleft, the affinity of the neurotransmitter for its receptor, and the presence of other molecules that may compete for receptor binding. By manipulating stochastic, noisy, and probabilistic factors such as these, precognitive information is written to the person’s brain through the activation of neural pathways.

    Because of this, probability manipulation can be used to influence a person’s thoughts. By manipulating the probability of them making a particular decision, you can influence processes such as synaptic transmission and the firing of neural pathways. For obvious ethical reasons, I do not use this technique often and I do not teach it. In this political climate, who knows what people would do. I can compel people with that technique, but it requires one enter into a head space where you are okay with total domination of another person, and that persona is hard to shake off.

    This means that when we can reject the null hypothesis in a tarot card reading regarding whether the cards convey a message or not, the power isn’t coming from the tarot cards or any magical system. Rather, a person is using precognition to sense the future. They are correlating that with entropic systems to encode information in an external source. Similar to how noise gets ordered in their brain, the entropic system becomes ordered to encode information. That implies there isn’t anything special about tarot cards. Instead, it is a combination of psychokinesis and precognition. Of course that implies a level of psychokinesis and precognition is necessary, though, a particular system is not.

    For example, my husband is a diviner. He has precognitive abilities, empathic abilities, and small forms of psychokinesis, which manifest through his use of cards as a tool. The cards that frequently come up when we’ve been able to reject the null hypothesis for me are:

    • King of Hearts
    • Queen of Spades
    • King of Diamonds
    • Queen of Clubs
    • King of Clubs

    These cards frequently come up when my husband does a reading in a controlled experiment. We have an automatic card shuffler to eliminate any bias introduced from how we may shuffle the cards. My husband calls them the Five Monarchs, and he says that they represent five different personas that I have. He is correlating his empathic abilities with an ensemble that has entropy to encode information about my subconscious mind. These cards come up frequently beyond chance. Many occultists who have run into me are probably familiar with who is my Queen of Spades aspect that exemplifies the Evil Queen archetype.

    While we are on the topic, formats like JPG and Computer Vision (CV) use Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to convert blocks of pixel data from the spatial domain (the original image) into the frequency domain (represented by coefficients). It does this by decomposing the image into a sum of cosine functions of different frequencies. The DCT represents the image data as a set of coefficients corresponding to different frequencies. Lower frequencies represent smooth variations in color and intensity, while higher frequencies represent rapid changes, such as edges or fine details. This means that any occult image that can be encoded as a JPEG is composed of sines and cosines, indicating that the image possesses harmonics. This means that any sigil or magical seal encoded in a JPG format is an image composed of sines and cosines that can be minimally represented with n modulo 2. If you encode the magical texts or magical seals into a digital image, it has a harmonic and binary representation.

    I’ve been experimenting with the interplay of harmonics, entropy, and image formats to manipulate Johnson–Nyquist noise or randomness from beam splitters and laser pointers, with the aim of conjuring digital images and sigils directly through magic. My endeavors have involved extensive research and experimentation. However, regrettably, given the increasing radicalization within occult and paranormal communities, it’s too dangerous, irresponsible, and unethical to allow this knowledge to fall into their hands.

    Entropy is not necessarily randomness, either, although they are often used interchangeably. Randomness and entropy become interchangeable when entropy is maximized. Entropy is a measurement of an ensemble and the permutations of that ensemble. A system that can be configured differently is thus an entropic system; however, that doesn’t necessarily imply randomness. Randomness implies one configuration being just as likely as another one. Having different permutations doesn’t imply all permutations are equally likely. Factorials can be used to calculate the number of possible arrangements or configurations of a system, which is closely related to its entropy. A maximally entropic system would be random; however, a random system is not necessary for there to a psychic influence, for there just needs to be enough degrees of freedom and entropy.

    I think tarot cards denote a particular culture. It’s a signifier of cultural membership. It signals to everyone that you are into occultism and tarot card readers act as guides, so it denotes a particular level of spiritual authority. Tarot card readers would thus be equivalent to an evangelical that does intercessory prayer. Seeing a tarot card reader would be like a Christian seeking a pastor.

    We don’t call Music Physics. We call Music Music, and we classify it as an art. To me, magic is the part of the underlying metaphysical aspects. The problem that I have is occultists’ belief that they have a dominance on magic such that people are starting to believe you cannot practice magic without occultism. Honestly, occultism is going down really, really dark paths, and I don’t believe you can spiritually progress while practicing occultism, so, for me, it is imperative to unlink magic and occultism.

    A tarot card reader that claims they rely on intuition is a fake. If there were a message encoded in the cards, we could measure the frequencies of particular cards to see if they were random without the interpretation of the tarot card reader, regardless of whether we knew what the message meant. The patterns would be there.

    It’s an aesthetic and a token of cultural membership.

  35. Yes, yes, my previous post was about this blog being defunct; however, I don’t want to post or talk about this stuff from my main blog, so here we go.

    I have issues with tarot cards. To be completely honest, my issues are exacerbated by people doubting my authenticity because I am not obsessed with occult symbols or talk endlessly about things like tarot cards, astrology, or grimoires. I wish I were kidding, but I’ve had little cabals, guilds, and cliques of people following me around the Internet for over 16 years at this point trying to prove I’m not legitimate. From what I can tell, it is because I refuse to join any occult cults or use systems that came from cult leaders. They find the idea of magic without an occult or religious system absolutely threatening or harmful to their self-esteem. I think it’s a weird manifestation of the sunk cost fallacy in that many of them have spent a lot of money, at the very least, if not large portions of their lives on these things. But, I digress.

    One, tarot cards are overly complex and superfluous for no reason. Two, people who use them aren’t actually interested in whether the predictions are true. You can implement something like tarot cards without tarot cards. Personally, I like playing cards over tarot cards, and I’ve known some people to use Magic The Gathering Cards. In any case, we can treat denotations of magical paradigms as ontologies and ontological statements or expressions. As such, we can regard them as languages. A way to think about it is that I can store demons, angels, tarot cards, correspondences, etc. into a database, such as the MySQL database of this site. What does that imply? That implies that we can model magical entities as a mathematical set of tuples, i.e., an alphabet. The ability to store entities from a grimoire in a database.

    Keep in mind that this site is powered by PHP and MySQL. If a person were to create a table in their database schema for demons, your ability to see that on the site would be an empirical case for the ability to do encode that information as tuples. The point is that we can treat the properties of these entities and the entity itself as an alphabet and words, respectively. That means that magical entities and correspondences are components of a tuple joined by operators to create relationships and rules. We can call that a language. As such, expressions and statements – such as the magical entity itself, can be expressed via a base 2 system, i.e., binary. An empirical case for this is the ability to store magical entities in a database, on a high level, which is digitally encoded as bytes sent across the Internet which you read through a CMS powered by SQL.

    An example of a base 2 system is an ensemble of coins where each coin has two possible states. Conventionally, we can think of them as yes or no. Anything that you can store digitally is binary. Even an image. So, you are not necessarily restricted to yes or no questions, for you can abstract those. You can abstract different lengths and frequencies of yes and no into any pattern that you want. The point is that any person can create any prototypical pattern that they want, that’s a high-level abstraction of binary states. There’s no particular reason to use tarot cards or an occult divination system at all.

    Here’s the other thing we know about how psychic and magical phenomena work: It’s based on subjective meaning. There’s a stronger connection if something has meaning to you, and it is subjective. There’s a larger dissonance between the prototypical patterns of a magical system and gestalt patterns and prototypical patterns of your behavior that emerge from your subjective experience. There’s a technique called a soul mirror in Hermetic schools of thought. Looking at your experience through a Hermetic magical system and language reflects back to you a version of yourself through the eyes of a Hermetic system; however, ChatGPT can actually be used as a type of mirror, too. One thing that I have been experimenting with is having ChatGPT analyze my journal entries and identify prototypical patterns that can be used in lieu of typical archetypes that show up in occultism. Again, you can treat the attributes of these patterns as tuples and reduce it down to a binary system that can be paired with coin divination practices.

    It’s not just an aesthetic issue, it is an epistemological issue. When you are trying to scientifically prove something, you don’t actually prove it. What was drilled into my head is that science does not prove anything, because science is inductive and not deductive; therefore, nothing can be 100% in science. Instead, science supports hypotheses and theories. In addition to that, you aim to debunk your own hypothesis. This means, if the hypothesis is that the cards have a message in them, we should be able to disprove this. Since this is purely a statistical problem, this makes it falsifiable where a lay person can easily do Null Hypothesis Significance testing.

    Randomness isn’t chaos. Randomness is when there is an equal probability of something happening. If there is a pool of events and all the events have the same probability of happening, that is an example of randomness. Information is an inverse property to randomness, where there is some type of sequence and correlation among pairs, i.e., a joint probability. Information is an ordered sequence of the joint probability of two things joined by an operator that denotes a correlation. So, that means if we are testing for the presence of information and a message in a spread of cards, we are looking for correlations, patterns, and redundancy above chance.

    Say that a tarot card reader is able to reject the null hypothesis and show that there is a message in the cards. Does this mean that it was the tarot cards after all? No. What is actually happening? When someone with precognition senses the future, what is happening is that the information is being written to their brain and body. Biological systems are very noisy, and they are stochastic and chaotic. There is a lot of randomness. Similar to how random events are altered outside a person’s body through magic, precognition orders random events inside a person’s body.

    The synaptic transmission of neurons—whether a neuron fires or not—is inherently stochastic. For example, the exact timing and number of vesicles released in response to each action potential can vary due to stochastic factors. These factors may include random fluctuations in the concentration of calcium ions or variations in the availability of vesicles for release. In addition, the probability of a neurotransmitter molecule binding to a receptor depends on factors such as the concentration of neurotransmitter in the synaptic cleft, the affinity of the neurotransmitter for its receptor, and the presence of other molecules that may compete for receptor binding. By manipulating stochastic, noisy, and probabilistic factors such as these, precognitive information is written to the person’s brain through the activation of neural pathways.

    Because of this, probability manipulation can be used to influence a person’s thoughts. By manipulating the probability of them making a particular decision, you can influence processes such as synaptic transmission and the firing of neural pathways. For obvious ethical reasons, I do not use this technique often and I do not teach it. In this political climate, who knows what people would do. I can compel people with that technique, but it requires one enter into a head space where you are okay with total domination of another person, and that persona is hard to shake off.

    This means that when we can reject the null hypothesis in a tarot card reading regarding whether the cards convey a message or not, the power isn’t coming from the tarot cards or any magical system. Rather, a person is using precognition to sense the future. They are correlating that with entropic systems to encode information in an external source. Similar to how noise gets ordered in their brain, the entropic system becomes ordered to encode information. That implies there isn’t anything special about tarot cards. Instead, it is a combination of psychokinesis and precognition. Of course that implies a level of psychokinesis and precognition is necessary, though, a particular system is not.

    For example, my husband is a diviner. He has precognitive abilities, empathic abilities, and small forms of psychokinesis, which manifest through his use of cards as a tool. The cards that frequently come up when we’ve been able to reject the null hypothesis for me are:

    • King of Hearts
    • Queen of Spades
    • King of Diamonds
    • Queen of Clubs
    • King of Clubs

    These cards frequently come up when my husband does a reading in a controlled experiment. We have an automatic card shuffler to eliminate any bias introduced from how we may shuffle the cards. My husband calls them the Five Monarchs, and he says that they represent five different personas that I have. He is correlating his empathic abilities with an ensemble that has entropy to encode information about my subconscious mind. These cards come up frequently beyond chance. Many occultists who have run into me are probably familiar with who is my Queen of Spades aspect that exemplifies the Evil Queen archetype.

    While we are on the topic, formats like JPG and Computer Vision (CV) use Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) to convert blocks of pixel data from the spatial domain (the original image) into the frequency domain (represented by coefficients). It does this by decomposing the image into a sum of cosine functions of different frequencies. The DCT represents the image data as a set of coefficients corresponding to different frequencies. Lower frequencies represent smooth variations in color and intensity, while higher frequencies represent rapid changes, such as edges or fine details. This means that any occult image that can be encoded as a JPEG is composed of sines and cosines, indicating that the image possesses harmonics. This means that any sigil or magical seal encoded in a JPG format is an image composed of sines and cosines that can be minimally represented with n modulo 2. If you encode the magical texts or magical seals into a digital image, it has a harmonic and binary representation.

    I’ve been experimenting with the interplay of harmonics, entropy, and image formats to manipulate Johnson–Nyquist noise or randomness from beam splitters and laser pointers, with the aim of conjuring digital images and sigils directly through magic. My endeavors have involved extensive research and experimentation. However, regrettably, given the increasing radicalization within occult and paranormal communities, it’s too dangerous, irresponsible, and unethical to allow this knowledge to fall into their hands.

    Entropy is not necessarily randomness, either, although they are often used interchangeably. Randomness and entropy become interchangeable when entropy is maximized. Entropy is a measurement of an ensemble and the permutations of that ensemble. A system that can be configured differently is thus an entropic system; however, that doesn’t necessarily imply randomness. Randomness implies one configuration being just as likely as another one. Having different permutations doesn’t imply all permutations are equally likely. Factorials can be used to calculate the number of possible arrangements or configurations of a system, which is closely related to its entropy. A maximally entropic system would be random; however, a random system is not necessary for there to a psychic influence, for there just needs to be enough degrees of freedom and entropy.

    I think tarot cards denote a particular culture. It’s a signifier of cultural membership. It signals to everyone that you are into occultism and tarot card readers act as guides, so it denotes a particular level of spiritual authority. Tarot card readers would thus be equivalent to an evangelical that does intercessory prayer. Seeing a tarot card reader would be like a Christian seeking a pastor.

    We don’t call Music Physics. We call Music Music, and we classify it as an art. To me, magic is the part of the underlying metaphysical aspects. The problem that I have is occultists’ belief that they have a dominance on magic such that people are starting to believe you cannot practice magic without occultism. Honestly, occultism is going down really, really dark paths, and I don’t believe you can spiritually progress while practicing occultism, so, for me, it is imperative to unlink magic and occultism.

    A tarot card reader that claims they rely on intuition is a fake. If there were a message encoded in the cards, we could measure the frequencies of particular cards to see if they were random without the interpretation of the tarot card reader, regardless of whether we knew what the message meant. The patterns would be there.

    It’s an aesthetic and a token of cultural membership.

  36. This post has a dual purpose. It is to serve as a test post to ensure that the blog is federated again, and it is to inform you that I probably won’t be updating it. I decided to put the blog back up after taking it down, again. While I will still be practicing magic and researching paranormal phenomena scientifically, this niche at this time draws entirely way too many insane people.

    So, I’d rather have a fediverse presence that doesn’t touch on that and have everything spooky be private. Honestly, I have decided to purge occult paradigms and lexicons from my practices, so there isn’t really any point in interacting with occultists since I am skeptical of most of their paradigms and have no desire to really interact or participate with them or their communities. Will I practice magic still? Yes. Will it have an occult flavor? No.

  38. The facets of me probably confuse a lot of people. I’m not a typical vampire. I absorb the energy from and the experiences of whoever is around me. While I don’t absorb semantic knowledge, I absorb tacit knowledge — the knowledge of how.

    So, if you know how to do ceremonial magic, and I am in your locality, I will absorb via osmosis your knowledge of how to do ceremonial magic. However, I won’t absorb the semantic knowledge of the literal meanings of symbols. But, I will have an intuitive knowledge and recognition of those symbols if I see them. I won’t have a literal understanding of them; however, I will have an abstract and intuitive knowledge of what they mean from tapping into another magician’s experience with them. If you know chaos magic, I will now know chaos magic. If you know witchcraft, I will know witchcraft.

    As of late, I am consciously and deliberately blocking absorption of that knowledge because I feel the experiences of many occultists are tainted with insanity, and I am not trying to go crazy with them. That is why it is beyond idiotic to try to gate keep and use magic against me. If you are in my locality, i.e., there is a causal, physical pathway for interaction like physical, albeit digital interactions on social media, I can absorb knowledge from you. A way to stop this would, of course, be to leave me alone.

    It is why I can circumvent gatekeeping and initiation. The purpose of initiation is to create an ineffable experience that is tied to that cohort and culture. It bridges the gap between semantic knowledge from what is written in grimoires and the internal experiences and ineffable knowledge to work the magic. By absorbing the tacit knowledge from what it seems like to do to know how to do something, I can intuitively know how to do it. Magic is subjective; therefore, it is tied to subjective forms of qualia such as how it seems like to see blue or the blueness of blue to you. It is tied to your experience of what it seems like to be you. Since I can tap into that, I can tap into the ineffable aspects of magic.

    To say it differently, I have the ability to telepathically channel and intuitively imitate abilities. This doesn’t apply to just magic and occultism. If I am around a person who can play the piano, I will know how to play the piano. If I am around a person who knows Math, I will know how to do Math. Unfortunately, unless I learn it and create experiences and memories for myself, it doesn’t stick around. Well, it does and does not.

    My husband, who has permission to poke around my head, says that my mind is like the mansion from 13 ghosts, where my subconscious mind is like a giant maze structured around a black hole. I seem to create an instance, model, or homunculus of the person in my mind where the tacit knowledge and the qualia of their subjective experience are channeled into that representation. I don’t forget it so much that I shove that instance of the person into the maze. It is not so much that I am a brilliant magician and genius; instead, I absorb information. My husband calls me a living grimoire.

  40. You know… after being involved in occultism since I was 10, weird has gotten… well, boring. All occultists seem to be the same, and many of the ones I knew in high school are still exactly like they were in high school. Weird is so normalized, it’s, well… normal. I’m bored to tears with occultism. Like, so fucking bored with it. If I come across yet another pseudo-mystical cipher that’s essentially just a doodle from someone’s psychedelic drug trip, or another set of sigils lazily thrown together using Austin Spare’s substitution method and embellished with Theban or Malachim script within a basic geometric shape, on a page with bones and skeletons, I swear I will fucking scream. My first formal grimoire that I kept in high school had scripts written in the Malachim alphabet. That was high school! The runes of Elder Futhark always felt dissonant and ominous to me, so I never messed with that. I only use systems that are resonant with me, which, at the moment, are systems I’ve created myself.

    It’s like, “Oh, another deer skull mask. Oh, another basic ass monoalphabetic cipher that’s not even a polyalphabetic cipher just because it looks spooky.” By the way, any system of sigils that’s a monoalphabetic cipher is basically ASCII. The sigils these people create aren’t even comprehensive ideograms to capture the basic contours of the experience, so they are mystically useless, and they pretty much imitate the grapheme of the English alphabet.

    These completely normal, mediocre people honestly believe they are edgy and weird. They’re boring. They are not innovating or transforming anything. They are just churning out things typical of that genre. They are living memes. I’m so fucking bored looking at occultists’ work nowadays.

  43. People often misunderstand me when I use the term psychic energy. When I refer to psychic energy, I’m not implying subtle energies such as ki, chi, or prana, nor am I alluding to astral energy. The idea of the luminiferous aether was a cosmological theory for space-time. Astral energy denotes a particular astrological cosmology. Energy is algebraically a characteristic polynomial and the eigenvalues of a higher-dimensional geometry, correlated with a stochastic, dynamical conceptual domain. In this framework, energy manifests as scalar and vector potential emerging from the configuration of that geometry.

    In mathematical physics, scalar potential, simply stated, describes the situation where the difference in the potential energies of an object in two different positions depends only on the positions, not upon the path taken by the object in traveling from one position to the other. It is a scalar field in three-space: a directionless value (scalar) that depends only on its location. A familiar example is potential energy due to gravity.

    My source of power lies in the scalar potentials of high-dimensional geometries due to my consciousness’s sensitivity. Those familiar with the properties of subtle energy or astrology will know what I am describing is not astral energy.

    For simplicity, I may occasionally conflate the astral and psychic or mental realms, but ontologically, the astral plane represents the celestial bodies’ plane of movement. It connotes heaven, which connotes space. Special relativity’s refuted the cosmological model of the luminiferous aether.

    Syncretism without proving an ontological duality is a “retcon”, suggesting evidence against one or both systems. One of the most frustrating aspects of occultism for me is the tendency to shift goalposts and assert dualities without proving them logically.

    In mathematics, a duality translates concepts, theorems or mathematical structures into other concepts, theorems or structures in a one-to-one fashion, often (but not always) by means of an involution operation: if the dual of A is B, then the dual of B is A. Such involutions sometimes have fixed points, so that the dual of A is A itself. For example, Desargues’ theorem is self-dual in this sense under the standard duality in projective geometry.

    In mathematical contexts, duality has numerous meanings.[1] It has been described as “a very pervasive and important concept in (modern) mathematics”[2] and “an important general theme that has manifestations in almost every area of mathematics”.

    Consciousness is inherently chaotic, raising questions about its fundamental nature and its relation to chaos. This uncertainty extends to the properties of consciousness used in magic, which may be extensions of chaos. For instance, if AI were to achieve true consciousness, it prompts speculation about its potential to perform magic and serve as vessels for our concept of a soul.

    Psychic energy being a part of my paradigm does not mean I am an energy worker. Psychic energy represents a gradient of experience, a property of phenomenology. I possess the ability to intervene on and change my thoughts. That changes internal properties of my mind. That implies energy. By consciously selecting my next experience and manipulating my thoughts, I shape my intention to align with specific probabilities and future realities, thereby shaping my consciousness. Since my mind undergoes change, psychic energy becomes a property enabling such transformations, connecting my mind beyond its physical boundaries with another entity I am a sorcerer.

    In a previous post, I discussed how psychic spaces have a metric space. On a physical level, physical locality and causality determine connections, with the scalar for causality being speed. Quantum entanglement, however, is instantaneous and non-local. Distance is measured by difference: as one approaches an object spatially, the difference between spatial dimensions decreases. Similarly, as one approaches an object mentally, their coordinates become increasingly similar inversely proportional to the decreasing difference.

    Objects (people, events, tables, cars, emotions, thoughts, etc.) are structured sets with properties existing within subsets. The entities, themselves, exist in a higher-dimensional psychic superset. On a psychic level, the distance between these entities is based on their similarity. As my mind converges with a physical property, an aspect of my mind changes to represent that future. This poses a danger with magic: approaching a specific psychic domain causes one to change, becoming more like that domain or an entity in that domain, leading to increased rapport and resonance. Many magicians experience obsessions and addictions due to prolonged exposure to magic, particularly ritual magic. Their minds are deformed and warped into patterns that denote those domains or entities, as entering such domains causes implicit changes to resemble that domain.

  44. My husband, admiring his handiwork, said, “And that was when Little Suzie – Karen – realized she fucked up.”

    Low-key… I think my husband’s spells may have gone a bit too far. FYI, for anyone always complaining about retrogrades, planetary magic square talismans can block astrological energies from that planet. I can’t take magicians seriously who constantly complain about retrogrades. Any magician worth their salt can make a talisman. These talismans will also protect you against diviners who have gotten hold of your information, created an astrological chart, and picked out a curse using planetary seals from the weak points of that chart to slowly drive you mad.

    The way my husband explained it to me, the macrocosm influences the microcosm, which refers to the psychological attributes of a person’s mind. Therefore, if you mess around with the astrological and elemental balance, you can throw their mind off-kilter. He described it as throwing a wrench in the gears. He described planetary seals as the accelerator of a car for astrological energy, where he cut the brakes to their astral car. It was more than just their chart and planetary seals. There was some geomancy involved too, and the idiots were stupid enough to include their Gematriac current – 156/663, which made it easy to lock onto them. People, if you are an occultist, don’t post your altars, your rituals, or even your current on social media. Just don’t do it.

  45. The urge to be petty and post a screenshot is really strong, but I will not since I’ve been saying a lot about that particular lot for years now. If you know, you know. Look, folks, if someone sits down at a table with Nazis, you have two Nazis and not one. Twitter is that table. Any white person who is still on Twitter is probably a Nazi, has implicit antisemitic beliefs, or enables antisemitism. I could be very, very petty and drop a screenshot of a well-known occultist defending antisemitism aimed at an autistic person who had to get off Twitter because of antisemitic conspiracy theories, but I won’t.

    Instead, I will just tag their cabal in the hash tag. Fascism did not swallow anyone whole. They were always fascist.Too many occultists enabled bigotry for far too long. With that, I am logging off the internet and will be enjoying my husband’s boneless, skinless BBQ chicken thighs. Cut off anyone who is still on Twitter because they see what is going on and have decided to still be in that space. Again, anyone who sits down with Nazis is a Nazi. Twitter is the dinner table. The same goes for substack.

  46. I think occult models, patterns, and schemas are dangerous and pathological; however, that doesn’t mean I think magic is the same. I’m a sorcerer who practices magic, but I am convinced that occultism is poison. I am psychic and interact with magical forces on a psychic level. This means that my mind is in contact with the energy of the collective experiences correlated with magical systems. To create a barrier between my consciousness, the edge of my consciousness, and the insanity, I create elaborate systems of abstractions.

    Besides that, occult systems have been poisoned on a cultural and psychic level. For Wheel of Time readers, it’s equivalent to the poisoning of the Saidin half of the One Power. Luckily, occult systems are more like a contrived psychic construct, loosely associated with culture and resonating with experience. Any sorcerer can isolate themselves from that poison by using a different system of cultural patterns, allegories, and drawing from a different set of experiences.

    Furthermore, every still practicing occultist I know from my cohort has become insane and spiraled off into dark web conspiracy esoteric orders. I really do mean the dark web. Currently, I’m working on abstracting and extracting elements of magic from the occult prototypes and patterns. Unfortunately, the Venn diagram between toxic nerds, incels, and problematic occult memes, patterns, and images is a circle. Popular art has been just as poisoned, so I will need to create this from scratch. However, I need to make it abstract enough to resonate with other people’s experiences on a psychic level so I can draw and amplify psychic energy.

    Moreover, I believe drinking from a poisoned well of power is pushing magicians over the edge. Almost every schizophrenic woman who forms a parasocial relationship with me, cis-gendered or trans, is associated with Babalon explicitly. They explicitly integrate their ritualistic practices with 156. Doing some research, I’ve noticed that this association between schizophrenic women and Babalon goes all the way back to the 1970s and 1980s. There is an associative correlation between Babalon and schizophrenic women that decide to engage in magic dealing with them. There are systems that my mind flags as dangerous. It outlines them in red, causing me not to seek out detailed knowledge of them, so my knowledge of Babalon is limited. My mind has explicitly outlined her with red and put up wards. Someone in my psionic cohort is getting drawn down rabbit holes via that particular deity, albeit I believe it is the culture and them being terminally online that is responsible and not some supernatural force. They really should be seeking out psychiatric help. I am not calling anyone out; instead, I am seeing a pattern of schizophrenic women from different cohorts – cis and trans – drawn to Babalon, so there is some association between that deity and schizophrenic women, whether paranormal or purely psychological and psychiatric.

    Furthermore, my mental wards are not intended to prevent external entities from doing something; instead, they prevent me from doing things. If I get a flash of prescience that says there is danger ahead of me and I am walking, it will be harder and harder for me to continue physically walking until I just stop walking. I have to turn around because my subconscious mind has placed a block on that decision. I don’t know why, but my body won’t allow me forward. I go home and then find out if I kept walking I would have walked into a shootout. I have an intuitive sense of what is a bad rabbit hole to go down or how deeply I can descend without losing my way. Adopting the jargon of chaotes who like SCP, I have a cognitohazard sensor built into my subconscious mind that makes itself known implicitly through my gut. Seeing the shit show that is Thelema, I am glad I did not jump on that wagon when my cohort did. When I say my cohort, I am specifically referring to millennials that were involved in paranormal, energy working forums, and IRC servers in the late ’90s and early 2000s.

    Additionally, as a teen, I never researched The runes of the Elder Futhark because my mind intuitively labeled many pagan ideologies as red and made me feel uncomfortable about much of the stuff I was reading. Over a decade later, I see the relationships many of those magical groups have to white supremacy, Nazis, etc. I think the nature of the culture and how they enable mental illness is to blame. My husband trusts me when I tell him I get a bad feeling about social influencers because, lo and behold, it comes out they did something awful.

    Moreover, I have an odd relationship with reality. Anyone who knows me knows that I am highly skeptical and constantly lecturing about not losing touch with reality. I emphasize using an empirical perspective, but I love mathematics. Math has an odd relationship with reality. It is more abstract than reality and doesn’t necessarily describe reality; rather, it describes the inferences and consequences of rules, like a game. Math is less a description of reality and more like a game and story that writes itself. We also cannot empirically observe the number 1. 1 and I are symbols that point to the concept of 1, and Algebra is the manipulation of symbols per rules and relationships. A professor I had in college drove that lesson home. He made sure that we understood that mathematics is the manipulation of symbols and concepts, and that algebraic relationships are nothing more than rules that entities must obey. Math is a symbolic language whose purpose is to describe things in such a way that the ambiguity of everyday language is removed. Symbolically, numbers and magical sigils are both ideograms, so both mathematical symbols and sigils denote the same type of symbol. There’s a tautological relationship between a conceptual and ideal realm of Math and reality that humans know of via intuition. A video that goes into that is:

    Are Prime Numbers Made Up?

    I am not saying occultism is based on Mathematics because often Mathematical proofs of occult systems wind up false somewhere. I am stating that Mathematics shows an epistemological and ontological link between the Ideal, the Mental, and what we think of as Reality. The existence of Logic and Mathematics creates a paradox when discussing that in conjunction with Empiricism, ironically. Mathematics provides me with a logical basis for magical thought.

    To be precise, I normally define divination and sorcery as inverses of each other. The etymology of the word sorcery is one who shifts fate, essentially.

    sorcery (n.)

    c. 1300, sorcerie, “witchcraft, magic, enchantment; act or instance of sorcery; supernatural state of affairs; seemingly magical works,” from Old French sorcerie, from sorcier “sorcerer, wizard,” from Medieval Latin sortiarius “teller of fortunes by lot; sorcerer,” literally “one who influences fate or fortune,” from Latin sors (genitive sortis) “lot, fate, fortune” (see sort (n.)).
    also from c. 1300

    Sorcery is a magical art of shifting futures. Divination, on the other hand, is the art of the prediction of futures. For example, a sorcerer would use tarot cards to create a particular future, whereas a diviner would use tarot cards to predict a future. Sorcery has an odd connection to reality. Sorcery is not descriptive like scientific languages that are meant to describe measurements precisely and predict things. Sorcery is an art where a magician intends to influence outcomes where there is a deviation between what the magician causes and what we expect. That difference, because of the deviation, is a gradient of energy. Magical systems are expressions of how things will be, not how they are, so there is a disjointed relationship with reality. When a person casts a spell or shifts a probabilistic and entropic system, even if we are just talking about the entropy of coins or cards to encode information, that person is breaking the unitary symmetry of reality and creating a structure or pattern that aligns with what they have willed to have happened. Fictional narratives are speculative or counter-factual, and in breaking the unitary system of a system, a magician realizes probabilistic subjunctive conditionals.

    Furthermore, that creates a paradox because I am quick to criticize magicians for losing contact with reality when they become delusional and believe their hallucinations are real. On the other hand, I tacitly acknowledge that fictions and delusions can become real. Why does it become real for some and not others? Power. Energy. A property that passes from one system to another system that causes a change, i.e., a difference is conventionally referred to via an abstraction we call energy. The ability to get something to change as a consequence of you is power. So, the degree that a magician can do this is relative to energy and power, and we can empirically measure that change because there are physical anomalies because of the symmetry breaking.

    Thankfully, mental illness is epistatic to psychic and magical ability. It is like inheriting red hair from your father and a gene for baldness. While your hair is red, no one will see it because you have no hair. Schizophrenia masks and mitigates psychic and magical power by introducing noise, disorder, and entropy. As a result, individuals with schizophrenia lack the ability to manifest their delusions and hallucinations because they struggle to organize and concentrate enough energy. Energy dissipation is correlated with disorder, causing a schizophrenic’s psychic energy to dissipate faster than they can effectively utilize it, making it too diffuse to realize a reality-warping event. Every once in a while, they are lucid; however, they are frequently too insane to be reliable. Psychotropic medications have no negative effect on psychic ability, so the best thing a schizophrenic person can do to improve their magic is to get on antipsychotic medication.

    Moreover, potential energy can be thought of as the energy of configuration. It is the energy an entity has from its relationship to other things, internal or external. For example, mass is energy that matter is and has that emerges from its internal configuration of gluons. The configuration of gluons gives rise to hadrons like protons. Heat, in the form of enthalpy, relates to internal configurations of matter. In this context, the potential energy of the system comes from how a culture patterns and stores the experiences of its members.

    Since I am discussing potential energy within the context of a psychic network, I should provide a more precise definition of energy. We can think of people’s minds and attributes of their minds as nodes connected to their own mind and the minds of others, and an adjacency matrix would be a matrix that represents the connections among nodes and the connections themselves as edges, where the edges have a weight. The energy of this system would be the sum of absolute values of the eigenvalues of the adjacency matrix. That is pretty abstract. An eigenvalue is just a factor by which something is stretched or compressed, so the energy of the network is a sum of how we can scale something. We can think of it as springs. The higher the value, the more you can stretch out the spring where the energy of that spring is the extent to which you can stretch it or compress. So, in this, we can think of the connections as standing waves, and eigenvalues are how far you can compress or stretch those waves that connect people psychically. That means people are oscillating or vibrating. Algebraically, that would also be what we would call a characteristic polynomial.

    While we can think of these connections as lines, it’s more accurate to think of them as vibrating, pulsing waves where the energy of the system relates to the eigenvalues. This, of course, means we can model these psychic networks using partial differential equations and wave equations. The analog to the temporal components would be orientations and integrals of experience. Angry people, for example, are vibrating at the frequency of anger, so their energy is characterized by anger. Consequently, they can antagonize others because of their anger and, in turn, provoke similar emotions in others. It seems that many occultists vibrate at literally insane frequencies, thereby spreading a wave of insanity. A wave is a propagation of an oscillation that pushes something out of equilibrium. Occult psychic networks, that occultists are connected to by communities and cultures, emanate waves of insanity that spread memetically or through psychic contact like a contagion.

    I don’t think the members of occult cults are actively using the antisocial and insane energy they are storing; instead, I think it is a consequence of cultural and psychosocial factors. I think they become magically realized as an analog to kinetic energy when a psychic magician interacts with that system. The psychic ability of the magician acts as a catalyst; however, since intentionality is the magician’s mind using itself to create a representation of that system, it instantiates a type of image or representation. Since the potential energy comes from, well, insanity, there is an entropic and chaotic backlash on the magician that warps their mind. I think the insanity within occult cults and cultures manifests physically through how they socially interact with each other and their physical behaviors.

    In addition, one of the reasons why people have a hard time realizing that I am a sorcerer is that, well, I am normal looking. When people read this without seeing a picture of me, their mind conjures up all sorts of odd ideas of what I must be like. A married, queer, suburban black person living in Atlanta is usually not what they think of so much so that many schizophrenic people have created these odd delusional narratives about me. I am that person next door who wears business casual clothing most of the time or basic jeans and a tank top. I don’t wear occult symbols, and I am not edgy. I don’t give off a witchy vibe. I like that suburban person next door vibe, so I am rejecting the image of the sorcerer that wears cloaks, robes, etc.

    Furthermore, I think I am going to base magical patterns and templates that I create on how I intuitively recognize magic. If I am watching a film or reading a book, does this feel magical? The first step is to drop the lexicon, which is why I am not using occult terms.

    Many people ask if I have such a bad attitude about occultism, why am I involved in it. The short answer is my mom’s a witch, albeit a cunning woman would be a more apt description of her, that lived in denial of her magic and that cost her her sanity and her relationship with her child – me. My maternal great-grandfather, my mother’s grandfather, is white and Irish. Specifically, we are descended from Irish Travelers. That’s where the psychic abilities I inherited from my maternal side come from, albeit I am culturally black. The past is the past and skeletons should be left buried, so I am in no hurry to look into that side of me. I am multiracial and multicultural; however, I choose to identify as a black person with one reason being that is how society treats me. The archetype of the witch is not a specific cultural instance; instead, it is more of a broad anthropological classification. The south is filled with many black witches who don’t even know they are witches. My marriage to an animistic indigenous man and where our cultures intersect make me question the separation between shaman, wizard, and witch, but that touches on intimate topics.

    To me, magic is a transformative act that illuminates things. Beyond the influence, it reveals things about our society in the very aesthetic elements of the artistic medium itself. I think magicians need to move past occult systems. They’re poisonous.

  48. I don’t do conspiracy theories, period, at all—the end. From the left or the right.

    If you log onto Mastodon, you see non-stop political discourse that is increasingly becoming radical from the left. If you log onto Twitter or Reddit, you see anti-Semitism, fascism, and Jesus Gets Us ads.

    There is no moral equivalence, nor am I arguing that. However, the existence of fascism doesn’t justify spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories to counter their conspiracy theories. In fact, it should be even more of a motivator to be meticulous and rigorous when laying out a persuasive case.

    While I am a magician and an occultist, I am fact-based and data-driven. If there is not a significant amount of data or if what you are asserting does not have enough empirical support, I will categorize it as speculation, conjecture, a counterfactual, and thus fiction.

    I don’t know if it is because it is an election year, but social media has become a dumpster fire of misinformation, conspiracy theories, antagonism, and non-stop political discourse. On a personal level, I resent it when people try to manipulate my opinions or beliefs.

    Again, there is no moral equivalence to fascism, but people should stop and evaluate the tactics they, themselves, use. Fascists spread conspiracy theories as a Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) tactic. I am seeing FUD spread all over Mastodon from people on the far left. It is an appeal to fear by creating paranoia. If you do this, you’re participating in Machiavellianism and expressing the same cynical view that is the slippery slope down into fascism. It could always be you. Most monsters don’t start off that way.

    A lot of people who do horrible things do so because they believe it is for a good cause. Most people end up in cults because they believe they can recognize when something is a cult, and since they would never join a cult, it isn’t a cult. In addition to that, very intelligent people are more likely to believe misinformation if it comes from peers and their peer network that they have strong relationships with. That’s why misinformation spreads like wildfire through highly connected social networks.

    Using Machiavellian approaches, for whatever reason, is implicitly the same type of cynical justification that fascists use. I’m not so naive to think that these random posts most people won’t see will change anything. I am just simply stating I’m logging off from social media because the conspiracy theories from all sides are too damn much.

    I’m backing up this site as I type this, moving a live site to my local host, and I will continue to express my thoughts privately. Thank God, all of my RSS feeds for reputable news and peer-reviewed research are set up on my smartphone and via Thunderbird. I have YouTube carefully tuned for only STEM stuff, and I have disallowed it to make recommendations for me. People have lost their damn marbles. As someone who deals with the esoteric and arcane and the spooky, I’ve always largely ignored conspiracy theories, but this is getting out of hand. I will not drink from a poisoned well. Time for me to log off.
